Which lines in this excerpt from “Flight” by John Steinbeck contain personification? The farm buildings huddled like the clingin

g aphids on the mountain skirts, crouched low to the ground as though the wind might blow them into the sea. . . . Five-fingered ferns hung over the water and dropped spray from their fingertips. . . . The high mountain wind coasted sighing through the passand whistled on the edges of the big blocks of broken granite. . . . A scar of green grass cut across the flat. And behind the flat another mountain rose, desolate with dead rocks and starving little black bushes. . . . Gradually the sharp snaggled edge of the ridge stood out above them, rotten granite tortured and eaten by the winds of time. Pepe had dropped his reins on the horn, leaving direction to the horse. The brush grabbed at his legs in the dark until one knee of his jeans was ripped.

Question 8 of 10 Which thinker was the first to develop a sun-centered model of the u O A. Nicolaus Copernicus O B. Isaac Newton
Neporo4naja [7]

Nicolaus Copernicus was the first thinker to develop the sun-centered model, as shown in option A.

We can arrive at this answer because:

  • During the Middle Ages, it was believed in a spatial model centered on the Earth.
  • This model claimed that the Earth was the center of the universe and all other planets revolved around it.
  • However, Nicolaus Copernicus when researching the stars realized that the sun was the center of the solar system and that the other planets, including the Earth, revolved around it.

Nicolaus Copernicus' model was not accepted by the Catholic Church, which dominated all branches of society at the time, and for that reason, he was heavily punished.
